Hi all,

At last count, the Boost Trac had over 700 open tickets. I've been thinking I personally could really use an excuse to concentrate on reducing that number (especially the ones assigned to me ;->). It might be fun to try some kind of organized event along the lines that the Ubuntu people use: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBugDay. Does something like this sound like it could work for us?

I think that this is a great idea, and would be glad to participate. [ Ok, so I've got about two tickets to my name, but still... ] Let's try to set this up for soon after BoostCon. Anyone have any specific ideas on how to make this happen? -- -- Marshall Marshall Clow Idio Software <mailto:marshall@idio.com> It is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion. It is by the beans of Java that thoughts acquire speed, the hands acquire shaking, the shaking becomes a warning. It is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion.
